The Killer Girl’s Severe Dependency

I find this plot point inexplicable. The male protagonist confessed his feelings for the female shop owner because of a stranger's kindness, but his unrequited love was shattered when he discovered she already had a fiancé. This is normal; there's nothing wrong with the plot. But the problem arose later.

The first 20 chapters have virtually nothing to do with the novel's title. The protagonist picks up this gambling addict, and I see him offering absolutely no help. He steals all of the protagonist's assets, forcing the protagonist to be wanted for saving him—though that's somewhat understandable. But it's still incredibly disgusting.

The assassin girl is heavily addicted, so where's your assassin girl? All you have is a little burden and a married female NPC on the street?

Anyone with even a basic understanding of the industry would be instantly poisoned by this setup. A top-tier intelligence agent—handsome, trusting of strangers, and unable to glean any information even after sharing a shower room with you—why doesn't he just perform magic tricks in the street? And then there's this nationally trained, intellectually sound, but utterly lacking in common sense top-tier assassin; you'd think he was some small organization's kept man, a bed partner and henchman.

The title character has almost no screen time. Yes, even after 360,000 words, the title character has barely appeared. The author himself said in the release notes that he didn't want the book to be dry, but he was just trying to whet readers' appetites. And now, he's inadvertently made himself a flop. Hilarious! Will he ever try to write something so foolish again?

I was quite annoyed after finishing it. The female lead, who appeared for so long, had so little screen time, no adventures, no ups and downs, and then a dry plot forced her to disappear. It's like they're deliberately trying to drive readers who came in based on the title.

What kind of nonsense is this lately? Has the author projected themselves into the male lead? The characters are all ruined; it's pure self-indulgence and self-pity. Readers will only think the male lead is mentally unstable, and seriously so, starting the moment he returned to his country. I just don't understand why he's so obsessed with that organization B!

The latest chapter was really frustrating to read. Two chapters depicted the protagonist's efforts to achieve his goal, only to fail at the last moment. For me, this was a major flaw. It's fine to have the protagonist suffer setbacks, but it's really infuriating to see them fail at the last minute after putting in so much effort and almost succeeding.

After reading about a dozen chapters, I really have to point out some flaws. First, there's the male lead's identity. As a spy who has been hiding for many years, being easily drugged by an ordinary person seems a bit off. He's supposed to be retired, but he hasn't been retired for long, yet he's completely forgotten all his spy experience.

I couldn't stand it anymore after reading the fourth volume. It's like they're writing whatever comes to mind, there are almost no titles, and the internal bias is too strong. They just built up Nicole in the beginning, and just when the readers started to like the character, they left her hanging for an entire volume.
